Ok, the narrative is consistently Texas is the better team, hands down, nothing more to see here. I see 68% on Texas. Here is my counter - Let's not give Manning the Heisman before he plays a game. He is on the road, and a tough place to play. Ohio State has a pretty good recruiting and history. There is also a widespread belief that Texas is not coached well. That all said, it is week one so tread lightly but this seems like a perfect game to go against the prevailing narrative because as Jonny points out, there is a ton of public attention on this game. When John Q Public looks for Internet guidance they are going to be led to Texas. I will be on Ohio State but staying away from the small line by taking TT. - NBL
